When a change is made currently, the entire image preview is replaced with a spinner. This feels quite disruptive when done often.

Potential solutions:

Try making the changes load fast enough for a loading screen to become unnecessary
Overlay the spinner on top of the current image while the next iteration is loading

Here's how it would look as a overlay: Kooha-2024-02-16-16-55-48.webm

The dimmed background still makes it pretty disruptive. Is the loading indicator necessary for such short waiting times?

tfuxu commented 6 months ago

I can make it to trigger after some time. How about after ~3 seconds?

bragefuglseth commented 6 months ago

Good idea! Let’s try that.

@bragefuglseth I've added loading overlay in commit 1a4b996aee3c937027cac6f71552d71512bd4eeb. Let me know if something should be changed
